Year 5 Trip to Epping Forest

As part of our work on rivers year 5 went to Epping Forest on 24th November 2010.

It was a bright and sunny day, but extremely cold. We set off with wellies, jeans and winter warmers.



We started by looking at the source of the river and examining different soils. It was very suprising to see how a river really begins.




Later in the day we drove to Debden to take measurements of the width, depth and speed of the water in two different places. Other than lunch this was by far the most popular part of the day!

We had a very enjoyable day and came home cold, tired and wet.
